Uso di inibitori della proteina 90K per la preparazione di un medicamento per la cura o prevenzione dei tumori Use of 90K protein inhibitors for the preparation of a medicament for the treatment or prevention of cancer
La presente invenzione concerne l’uso di inibitori della proteina 90K per la preparazione di un medicamento per la cura o prevenzione dei tumori. The present invention relates to the use of 90K protein inhibitors for the preparation of a medicament for the treatment or prevention of tumors.
Più in particolare, l’invenzione concerne l’uso di inibitori della proteina 90K per la preparazione di un medicamento per la cura o prevenzione dei tumori quali il carcinoma della mammella, dell’ovaio, del polmone, dell’apparato gastrointestinale, il melanoma, i linfomi o altri tumori che iperesprimono la 90K. More particularly, the invention relates to the use of inhibitors of the 90K protein for the preparation of a medicament for the treatment or prevention of tumors such as carcinoma of the breast, ovary, lung, gastrointestinal tract, melanoma, lymphomas or other tumors that overexpress 90K.
Il termine tumore sarà utilizzato qui di seguito per indicare il tumore maligno, noto anche come cancro. The term tumor will be used below to refer to malignancy, also known as cancer.
Il tumore è una malattia caratterizzata dalla proliferazione incontrollata di cellule trasformate che invadono i tessuti vicini e diffondono in altre regioni del corpo attraverso un processo noto come metastatizzazione. I tumori in fase metastatica portano a morte i pazienti in un tempo variabile da pochi mesi a qualche anno. I farmaci più utilizzati nel trattamento dei tumori sono i chemioterapici citotossici (detti anti antiblastici o semplicemente chemioterapici). Questi farmaci agiscono danneggiando il DNA o inibendo la duplicazione cellulare, e quindi provocano la morte in maniera aspecifica sia delle cellule tumorali sia delle cellule normali in fase di replicazione. La mancanza di specificità d’azione dei chemioterapici è alla base della considerevole tossicità che fa seguito alla loro somministrazione. Cancer is a disease characterized by the uncontrolled proliferation of transformed cells that invade nearby tissues and spread to other regions of the body through a process known as metastasis. Metastatic cancers lead to death in patients in a period ranging from a few months to a few years. The drugs most used in the treatment of tumors are cytotoxic chemotherapy (called antiblastic or simply chemotherapy). These drugs work by damaging DNA or inhibiting cell duplication, and thus cause nonspecific death of both cancer cells and normal cells in the process of replication. The lack of specific action of chemotherapeutics is the basis of the considerable toxicity that follows their administration.
Nell’ultimo decennio la ricerca scientifica di base ha notevolmente incrementato le conoscenze sui meccanismi molecolari responsabili della trasformazione e della proliferazione delle cellule tumorali. Ciò ha portato allo sviluppo di farmaci “a bersaglio molecolare” o “targeted therapy”, cioè di farmaci disegnati per agire in modo specifico sulle cellule tumorali che presentano una determinata alterazione molecolare e/o funzionale. Anche le “targeted therapy” sono però gravate da effetti collaterali e spesso riescono a contrastare la crescita tumorale solo temporaneamente. Nonostante i progressi scientifici e l’introduzione in clinica di nuovi agenti chemioterapici e “targeted”, il tumore rimane una malattia difficile da curare, responsabile di circa il 13% delle morti in tutto il mondo. In the last decade, basic scientific research has significantly increased knowledge on the molecular mechanisms responsible for the transformation and proliferation of cancer cells. This has led to the development of "targeted" or "targeted therapy" drugs, ie drugs designed to act in a specific way on cancer cells that show a specific molecular and / or functional alteration. However, even the "targeted therapies" are burdened by side effects and often manage to counteract tumor growth only temporarily. Despite scientific advances and the introduction of new and "targeted" chemotherapy agents into the clinic, cancer remains a difficult disease to cure, responsible for about 13% of deaths worldwide.
Alla luce di quanto esposto sopra risulta evidente l’esigenza di avere a disposizione nuove terapie antitumorali, più efficaci e possibilmente meno tossiche. In quest’ambito, la nostra attenzione si è focalizzata su trattamenti volti ad inibire l’azione di una proteina associata ai tumori chiamata 90K. In light of the foregoing, the need to have new, more effective and possibly less toxic anticancer therapies is evident. In this context, our attention has focused on treatments aimed at inhibiting the action of a protein associated with tumors called 90K.
La 90K, nota anche come Mac-2 BP o LGALS3BP, è una molecola complessa, oligomerica, composta da subunità di circa 90.000 daltons, ricca di catene glucidiche e con diversi domini funzionali [1-4]. La proteina è secreta prevalentemente da cellule epiteliali e si ritrova nel sangue ed in altri liquidi biologici dell’uomo alla concentrazione di mg/ml [3, 5]. La 90K si localizza anche nella matrice extracellulare (ECM) dove si lega ai collageni ed alla fibronectina [6]. Pur non essendo una proteina “transmembrana”, la 90K si trova spesso associata con la membrana di rivestimento delle cellule [7, 8], dove lega in modo specifico la galectina-3 [2], la galectina-1 e -7 [9], le beta-1 integrine [6], la kitenina [10] e l’endosialina [11]. 90K, also known as Mac-2 BP or LGALS3BP, is a complex, oligomeric molecule, composed of subunits of about 90,000 daltons, rich in glucose chains and with different functional domains [1-4]. The protein is mainly secreted by epithelial cells and is found in the blood and other biological fluids of man at a concentration of mg / ml [3, 5]. 90K is also localized in the extracellular matrix (ECM) where it binds to collagen and fibronectin [6]. Although not a "transmembrane" protein, 90K is often found associated with the lining membrane of cells [7, 8], where it specifically binds galectin-3 [2], galectin-1 and -7 [9 ], beta-1 integrins [6], kitenine [10] and endosyalin [11].
Per le sue funzioni di “multi-ligando” la 90K è coinvolta nei processi adesivi che regolano l’omeostasi tissutale, come l’adesione omotipica, cioè tra cellule dello stesso tipo (per esempio tra cellule epiteliali), l’adesione eterotipica, cioè tra cellule diverse (per esempio tra cellule epiteliali da un lato e fibroblasti, cellule endoteliali o cellule del sangue dall’altro), e l’adesione tra cellule e ECM. Evidenze sperimentali indicano che la 90K ha un ruolo importante nei processi di crescita e diffusione metastatica dei tumori grazie proprio alla sua capacità di mediare fenomeni di adesione. Per esempio, allorché cellule tumorali mantenute in sospensione unicellulare in fiasche di coltura in vitro vengono esposte a 90K ricombinante purificata, si assiste ad un aumento dell’adesione cellula-cellula (adesione omotipica) con formazione di aggregati multicellulari (vedi esempio 1). Questo fenomeno, dovuto alla capacità della 90K di legare residui di galectina-3 e galectina-1 presenti su cellule adiacenti [12, 13], può avere particolare rilevanza nella progressione neoplastica in quanto favorisce la sopravvivenza delle cellule tumorali penetrate nel circolo sanguigno durante il processo di metastatizzazione. Due to its "multi-ligand" functions, 90K is involved in the adhesive processes that regulate tissue homeostasis, such as homotypic adhesion, i.e. between cells of the same type (for example between epithelial cells), heterotypic adhesion, i.e. between different cells (for example between epithelial cells on the one hand and fibroblasts, endothelial cells or blood cells on the other), and the adhesion between cells and ECM. Experimental evidence indicates that 90K plays an important role in the processes of growth and metastatic spread of tumors thanks to its ability to mediate adhesion phenomena. For example, when tumor cells kept in single-cell suspension in in vitro culture flasks are exposed to purified recombinant 90K, there is an increase in cell-cell adhesion (homotypic adhesion) with the formation of multicellular aggregates (see example 1). This phenomenon, due to the ability of 90K to bind residues of galectin-3 and galectin-1 present on adjacent cells [12, 13], may have particular relevance in neoplastic progression as it promotes the survival of tumor cells that have entered the bloodstream during metastasis process.
La 90K è anche in grado di rendere le cellule tumorali resistenti all’azione dei chemioterapici. E’ noto infatti che l’adesione cellulare a proteine della ECM protegge le cellule dall’apoptosi indotta da farmaci antiblastici [14, 15]. E’ stato dimostrato che l’adesione di cellule di linfoma alla 90K, attraverso le beta-1 integrine, conferisce resistenza all’azione citotossica di alcuni chemioterapici, riducendo la percentuale di cellule in apoptosi [16]. Questo effetto della 90K può spiegare quanto osservato in clinica in pazienti affetti da linfomi non-Hodgikin, dove alti livelli ematici di proteina si associano a scarsa risposta alla chemioterapia e ridotta sopravvivenza [16-18]. 90K is also able to make cancer cells resistant to the action of chemotherapy. In fact, it is known that cell adhesion to ECM proteins protects cells from apoptosis induced by antiblastic drugs [14, 15]. It has been shown that the adhesion of lymphoma cells to 90K, through beta-1 integrins, confers resistance to the cytotoxic action of some chemotherapeutics, reducing the percentage of cells in apoptosis [16]. This 90K effect may explain what has been observed in the clinic in patients with non-Hodgikin lymphomas, where high blood levels of protein are associated with poor response to chemotherapy and reduced survival [16-18].
Inoltre, la 90K secreta è in grado di aumentare la produzione di enzimi coinvolti nella degradazione della matrice extracellulare, come ADAMTS (a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs) [19] e MMPs (metalloproteasi) [20], evento essenziale nei processi di invasione e metastatizzazione tumorale [21-24]. La produzione di MMP-7 indotta dalla 90K sembra mediata dalla interleukina (IL)-6, visto che anticorpi anti IL-6 inibiscono tale effetto [20]. L’IL-6 è una citochina ad azione proinfiammatoria e proangiogenetica che favorisce la crescita tumorale e la metastatizzazione [25, 26]. La capacità della 90K di stimolare la produzione di IL-6 è stata dimostrata nelle cellule mononucleate del sangue [27, 28] e recentemente anche nelle cellule staminali mesenchimali di midollo osseo [29]. Quest’ultimo effetto è stato messo in relazione con la propensione del neuroblastoma a metastatizzare alle ossa [29]. Furthermore, the secreted 90K is able to increase the production of enzymes involved in the degradation of the extracellular matrix, such as ADAMTS (a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs) [19] and MMPs (metalloprotease) [20], an essential event in the invasion processes and tumor metastasis [21-24]. The 90K-induced MMP-7 production appears to be mediated by interleukin (IL) -6, since antibodies to IL-6 inhibit this effect [20]. IL-6 is a pro-inflammatory and proangiogenic cytokine that promotes tumor growth and metastasis [25, 26]. The ability of 90K to stimulate IL-6 production has been demonstrated in blood mononuclear cells [27, 28] and recently also in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells [29]. The latter effect was related to the propensity of neuroblastoma to metastasize to the bone [29].
La 90K originariamente è stata identificata nel mezzo di coltura di cellule di carcinoma della mammella umano[1]. Grazie allo sviluppo di un anticorpo monoclonale specifico, denominato SP2, è stato possibile studiare i livelli di 90K nel sangue ed in altri liquidi biologici, nonché di valutarne l’espressione nei tessuti tumorali [1-4]. Questa proteina è risultata particolarmente elevata nel sangue di pazienti con varie forme di tumore, quali il carcinoma della mammella, dell’ovaio, del polmone, dell’apparato gastrointestinale, il melanoma ed i linfomi [5, 30] e in pazienti non oncologici affetti da infezioni virali come l’epatite da HBV o HCV, e l’infezione da HIV [31, 32]. Nell’epatite da HCV, i livelli ematici di 90K sono correlati alla severità della malattia ed alla durata dell’infezione. Inoltre, elevati livelli di 90K sono un fattore predittivo indipendente di mancata risposta al trattamento con interferone [32] o al trattamento combinato con peginterferone e ribavirina [33]. Nei pazienti con infezione da HIV la quantità di proteina presente in circolo è direttamente correlata allo stadio della malattia, con livelli più elevati negli stadi più avanzati [34]. Inoltre elevati livelli di 90K alla diagnosi sono un fattore prognostico indipendente di progressione ad AIDS conclamata [35]. 90K was originally identified in human breast cancer cell culture medium [1]. Thanks to the development of a specific monoclonal antibody, called SP2, it was possible to study the levels of 90K in the blood and other biological fluids, as well as to evaluate its expression in tumor tissues [1-4]. This protein was particularly elevated in the blood of patients with various forms of cancer, such as breast, ovarian, lung, gastrointestinal tract, melanoma and lymphomas [5, 30] and in non-cancer patients affected from viral infections such as HBV or HCV hepatitis, and HIV infection [31, 32]. In HCV hepatitis, blood levels of 90K are related to the severity of the disease and the duration of the infection. Furthermore, elevated 90K levels are an independent predictor of failure to respond to treatment with interferon [32] or to combined treatment with peginterferon and ribavirin [33]. In HIV-infected patients, the amount of protein in the circulation is directly related to the stage of the disease, with higher levels in the more advanced stages [34]. Furthermore, elevated 90K levels at diagnosis are an independent prognostic factor of overt AIDS progression [35].
Per quanto riguarda i pazienti affetti da tumore, destinatari del presente brevetto, i livelli ematici di 90K sono risultati associati alla prognosi. Infatti, pazienti con carcinoma della mammella [36] o dell’ovaio [37] con più alti livelli ematici della proteina presentano una più breve sopravvivenza rispetto ai pazienti con livelli normali. Anche in pazienti con linfoma (Hodgkin o non-Hodgkin), alti livelli ematici di 90K sono associati a ridotta sopravvivenza e ridotta sensibilità ai trattamenti chemioterapici [16-18]. As for cancer patients, recipients of this patent, the blood levels of 90K were associated with the prognosis. In fact, patients with breast [36] or ovarian [37] cancer with higher blood levels of the protein have a shorter survival than patients with normal levels. Even in patients with lymphoma (Hodgkin or non-Hodgkin), high blood levels of 90K are associated with reduced survival and reduced sensitivity to chemotherapy treatments [16-18].
Il significato prognostico sfavorevole della 90K nei pazienti oncologici è stato osservato anche quando l’espressione della proteina è stata valutata nel tessuto tumorale. In pazienti affetti da carcinoma polmonare non a piccole cellule [38] o carcinoma della mammella [39], l’elevata espressione della proteina nelle cellule tumorali (valutata in immunoistochimica) è risultata predittiva di ridotta sopravvivenza. Inoltre, in questi pazienti, alti livelli tumorali di 90K sono predittivi di diffusione metastatica della malattia, analogamente a quanto osservato per gli alti livelli ematici [36]. Un altro tumore che frequentemente esprime alti livelli di 90K è il melanoma. In questo tumore la 90K è associata alla trasformazione maligna ed assume valore diagnostico dal momento che i melanociti normali non esprimono la 90K [40]. The unfavorable prognostic significance of 90K in cancer patients was also observed when the expression of the protein was evaluated in tumor tissue. In patients with non-small cell lung cancer [38] or breast cancer [39], the high expression of the protein in tumor cells (evaluated in immunohistochemistry) was found to be a predictor of reduced survival. Furthermore, in these patients, high tumor levels of 90K are predictive of metastatic spread of the disease, similar to what has been observed for high blood levels [36]. Another tumor that frequently expresses high levels of 90K is melanoma. In this tumor, 90K is associated with malignant transformation and assumes diagnostic value since normal melanocytes do not express 90K [40].
Complessivamente i dati sperimentali e clinici indicano che la 90K ha un ruolo non secondario nello sviluppo e nella progressione dei tumori e, quindi, la disponibilità di agenti in grado di inibire l’attività di questa proteina potrebbe essere di ausilio nel contrastare la malattia tumorale. Overall, the experimental and clinical data indicate that 90K has a non-secondary role in the development and progression of tumors and, therefore, the availability of agents capable of inhibiting the activity of this protein could be of help in combating tumor disease.
L’Autore della presente invenzione ha ora trovato che la 90K rappresenta un fattore determinante nella progressione tumorale e usando specifici inibitori della proteina è possibile far regredire il tumore. In particolare, come inibitore della 90K, è stato impiegato l’anticorpo monoclonale SP2. Questo anticorpo è stato ottenuto utilizzando la tecnica degli ibridomi [41], mediante immunizzazione di topi BALB/c con proteine secrete nel terreno di coltura di cellule di carcinoma mammario umano [1]. Si tratta di un anticorpo di isotipo IgG1 che riconosce in maniera specifica la 90K. L’anticorpo è stato utilizzato per lo sviluppo di un kit per il dosaggio immuno-enzimatico (ELISA) della 90K nei liquidi biologici [5]. L’anticorpo è stato brevettato come reagente per la determinazione in vitro della concentrazione di 90K per la diagnosi e la prognosi nei pazienti affetti da infezione da HIV (brevetto statunitense 5298391). La linea cellulare murina di ibridoma, da cui si purifica l’anticorpo SP2, è stata depositata, in data 5 febbraio 1993, a nome di Stefano Iacobelli, presso il DSMZ (DEUTSCHE SAMMLUNG VON MIKROORGANISMEN UND ZELLKULTUREN GmbH), sotto il trattato di Budapest, con il numero di accesso DSM ACC2116, Mascheroder Weg 1 B D-3300 Braunschweig, Germania, e presso il C.N.C.M.(Collection Nationale de Cultures de Microorganismes) dell’Istituto Pasteur di Parigi, Francia, con il numero di accesso I-1083. The author of the present invention has now found that 90K represents a determining factor in tumor progression and by using specific inhibitors of the protein it is possible to regress the tumor. In particular, the monoclonal antibody SP2 was used as a 90K inhibitor. This antibody was obtained using the hybridoma technique [41], by immunization of BALB / c mice with proteins secreted in the culture medium of human breast cancer cells [1]. It is an IgG1 isotype antibody that specifically recognizes 90K. The antibody was used for the development of a kit for the immuno-enzymatic assay (ELISA) of 90K in biological fluids [5]. The antibody has been patented as a reagent for the in vitro determination of the 90K concentration for diagnosis and prognosis in patients with HIV infection (US patent 5298391). The murine hybridoma cell line, from which the SP2 antibody is purified, was deposited, on February 5, 1993, in the name of Stefano Iacobelli, at the DSMZ (DEUTSCHE SAMMLUNG VON MIKROORGANISMEN UND ZELLKULTUREN GmbH), under the Treaty of Budapest , under the access number DSM ACC2116, Mascheroder Weg 1 B D-3300 Braunschweig, Germany, and at the C.N.C.M. (Collection Nationale de Cultures de Microorganismes) of the Pasteur Institute in Paris, France, under the access number I-1083.
Forma pertanto oggetto specifico della presente invenzione l’uso di inibitori della proteina 90K per la preparazione di un medicamento per la prevenzione e/o la cura dei tumori. In particolare, gli anticorpi sono scelti nel gruppo che consiste in anticorpi policlonali, monoclonali, quale ad esempio anticorpo monoclonale è l’anticorpo SP2 prodotto dall’ibridoma DSM ACC2116, anticorpi bi-specifici, a singola catena o frammenti di anticorpi. L’anticorpo monoclonale può essere ottenuto mediante la tecnica degli ibridomi descritta da Koheler et al [41] o mediante tecnica del DNA ricombinante. Gli anticorpi monoclonali possono anche essere ottenuti da librerie di anticorpi da fagi con la tecnica descritta da Clackson et al [42]. Therefore, the specific object of the present invention is the use of inhibitors of the 90K protein for the preparation of a medicament for the prevention and / or treatment of tumors. In particular, the antibodies are selected from the group consisting of polyclonal, monoclonal antibodies, such as for example the monoclonal antibody is the SP2 antibody produced by the DSM ACC2116 hybridoma, bi-specific antibodies, single-chain or antibody fragments. The monoclonal antibody can be obtained by the hybridoma technique described by Koheler et al [41] or by recombinant DNA technique. Monoclonal antibodies can also be obtained from phage antibody libraries with the technique described by Clackson et al [42].
I tumori che possono essere trattati sono quelli che colpiscono la specie umana quali ad esempio il carcinoma della mammella, dell’ovaio, del polmone, dell’apparato gastrointestinale, i melanomi, i linfomi, ed altri tumori che iperesprimono la 90K. Per questi tumori è stato dimostrato un ruolo della 90K nel favorire lo sviluppo e la crescita del tumore, e quindi l’inibizione della proteina potrebbe dare sicuri benefici. Comunque, non è escluso che altri tumori che esprimono alti livelli di 90K possano beneficiare del trattamento anti-90K. The tumors that can be treated are those that affect the human species such as breast, ovarian, lung, gastrointestinal tract carcinoma, melanomas, lymphomas, and other tumors that overexpress 90K. For these tumors, 90K has been shown to play a role in promoting tumor development and growth, and therefore inhibition of the protein could give certain benefits. However, it is not excluded that other tumors expressing high levels of 90K may benefit from the anti-90K treatment.
Costituisce ulteriore oggetto della presente invenzione l’uso di uno o più inibitori contro la proteina 90K, ad esempio quelli definiti sopra, per la diagnosi e la caratterizzazione dei tumori, sia in vitro che in vivo. A questo scopo l’anticorpo può essere marcato con cromogeni, fluorocromi, isotopi radioattivi ed utilizzato in saggi di immunoistochimica o per imaging molecolare in vivo. I tumori di interesse sono ad esempio, ma non esclusivamente, quelli scelti nel gruppo che presentano invariabilmente alti livelli di espressione di 90K come il carcinoma della mammella, dell’ovaio, del polmone, dell’apparato gastrointestinale, i melanomi o i linfomi. A further object of the present invention is the use of one or more inhibitors against the 90K protein, for example those defined above, for the diagnosis and characterization of tumors, both in vitro and in vivo. For this purpose, the antibody can be labeled with chromogens, fluorochromes, radioactive isotopes and used in immunohistochemical assays or for in vivo molecular imaging. The tumors of interest are, for example, but not exclusively, those selected from the group that invariably have high levels of expression of 90K such as carcinoma of the breast, ovary, lung, gastrointestinal tract, melanomas or lymphomas.
La presente invenzione concerne inoltre una composizione comprendente la o consistente nella combinazione di uno o più inibitori della 90K, ad esempio quelli definiti sopra, e di uno o più sostanze antitumorali come principi attivi assieme ad uno o più eccipienti e/o coadiuvanti farmaceuticamente accettabili. Tra le sostanze antitumorali disponiamo di dati sperimentali sull’associazione dell’anticorpo anti-90K SP2 con docetaxel, ma possono essere utilizzati altri farmaci scelti nel gruppo dei chemioterapici quali ad esempio Paclitaxel, Antracicline, Fluoropirimidine, alcaloidi della vinca, derivati del platino o delle targeted therapy quali ad esempio trastuzumab, bevacizumab, cetuximab, panitumumab, sunitinib, sorafenib, gefitinib, erlotinib. The present invention also relates to a composition comprising o consisting of the combination of one or more inhibitors of 90K, for example those defined above, and of one or more anticancer substances as active ingredients together with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable excipients and / or adjuvants. Among the anticancer substances we have experimental data on the association of the anti-90K SP2 antibody with docetaxel, but other drugs chosen from the group of chemotherapeutic agents can be used such as for example Paclitaxel, Anthracyclines, Fluoropyrimidines, vinca alkaloids, platinum derivatives or targeted therapy such as trastuzumab, bevacizumab, cetuximab, panitumumab, sunitinib, sorafenib, gefitinib, erlotinib.

Esempio 1: Studio del ruolo della 90K sull’adesione omotipica di cellule di melanoma. Example 1: Study of the role of 90K on homotypic adhesion of melanoma cells.
Materiali e metodi: Cellule di melanoma umano A375 sono mantenute in sospensione unicellulare in PBS (0,5 ml) in provette di prolipropilene, alla concentrazione di 1x10<6>cellule/ml, e lasciate in agitazione a 100 rpm, a 37 °C, in presenza o meno di 90K ricombinante purificata alla concentrazione di 10 µg/ml. Dopo 1 ora l’aggregazione cellulare è bloccata con l’aggiunta di 50 ml di paraformaldeide 10%. Il numero degli aggregati viene calcolato per differenza, contando al microscopio le cellule rimaste singole. Materials and methods: A375 human melanoma cells are kept in single-cell suspension in PBS (0.5 ml) in prolipropylene tubes, at a concentration of 1x10 <6> cells / ml, and left to shake at 100 rpm, at 37 ° C , with or without purified recombinant 90K at a concentration of 10 µg / ml. After 1 hour, cell aggregation is stopped with the addition of 50 ml of 10% paraformaldehyde. The number of aggregates is calculated by difference by counting the remaining single cells under the microscope.
Risultati: In presenza di 90K si verifica un aumento del 60-70% dell’adesione cellula-cellula (adesione omotipica) con formazione di aggregati multicellulari (figura 1). Results: In the presence of 90K there is a 60-70% increase in cell-cell adhesion (homotypic adhesion) with the formation of multicellular aggregates (Figure 1).
Esempio 2: Studio in vivo del ruolo della 90K nella formazione di metastasi polmonari da cellule di carcinoma polmonare murino di Lewis. Example 2: In vivo study of the role of 90K in the formation of lung metastases from murine Lewis lung cancer cells.
Materiali e metodi: Topi singenici C57/BL6 sono inoculati per via intramuscolare, sulla parte prossimale dell’arto posteriore, con 50.000 cellule di carcinoma polmonare murino di Lewis. Un gruppo rimane come controllo. Un gruppo viene invece trattato, dopo 3-4 giorni dall’inoculo, con 100 µg di 90K per via endovenosa, per 5 giorni consecutivi. Dopo 20 giorni i topi sono sacrificati ed il numero delle metastasi conteggiato nei polmoni fissati e colorati con soluzione di Bowen (acido picrico e formalina). Ciascun gruppo, controllo e trattato, consiste di 8 animali. Materials and methods: C57 / BL6 syngenic mice are inoculated intramuscularly, on the proximal part of the hind limb, with 50,000 Lewis murine lung cancer cells. One group remains as a control. On the other hand, one group is treated, after 3-4 days from inoculation, with 100 µg of 90K intravenously, for 5 consecutive days. After 20 days the mice are sacrificed and the number of metastases counted in the lungs fixed and stained with Bowen's solution (picric acid and formalin). Each group, control and treated, consists of 8 animals.
Risultati: I topi trattati con 90K sviluppano un numero di metastasi circa il doppio rispetto ai controlli, aumento statisticamente significativo (figura 2). Results: Mice treated with 90K developed approximately twice as many metastases as controls, a statistically significant increase (Figure 2).
Esempio 3: Studio del ruolo dell’anticorpo SP2 sull’adesione omotipica indotta dalla 90K di cellule di melanoma. Example 3: Study of the role of the SP2 antibody on the homotypic adhesion induced by 90K of melanoma cells.
Materiali e metodi: Cellule di melanoma umano A375 sono mantenute in sospensione unicellulare come nell’esempio 1, in presenza di 90K ricombinante purificata (10 µg/ml) e con l’aggiunta o meno di SP2 alla concentrazione di 100 µg/ml. Dopo 1 ora l’aggregazione cellulare è bloccata e gli aggregati contati come nell’esempio 2 Materials and methods: A375 human melanoma cells are kept in single-cell suspension as in example 1, in the presence of purified recombinant 90K (10 µg / ml) and with the addition or not of SP2 at a concentration of 100 µg / ml. After 1 hour the cell aggregation is blocked and the aggregates counted as in example 2
Risultati: L’aggiunta dell’SP2 alle cellule A375 determina una significativa riduzione dell’aggregazione cellulare (figura 3). Results: The addition of SP2 to A375 cells results in a significant reduction in cell aggregation (Figure 3).
Esempio 4: Studio in vivo del ruolo dell’anticorpo SP2 sulla crescita tumorale di cellule di melanoma. Example 4: In vivo study of the role of the SP2 antibody on the tumor growth of melanoma cells.
Materiali e metodi: Topi nudi vengono inoculati sottocute con 5x10<6>cellule di melanoma umano MEL 8863 (cellule che esprimono 90K). Un gruppo rimane come controllo. Un gruppo viene invece trattato per via intraperitoneale con SP2 alla dose di 10 µg/kg due volte la settimana. La crescita tumorale viene monitorata misurando i diametri delle lesioni fino a 33 giorni dall’inoculo. Ciascun gruppo, controllo e trattato, consiste di 8 animali. Materials and methods: Nude mice are inoculated subcutaneously with 5x10 <6> human melanoma cells MEL 8863 (cells expressing 90K). One group remains as a control. On the other hand, one group is treated intraperitoneally with SP2 at a dose of 10 µg / kg twice a week. Tumor growth is monitored by measuring the diameters of the lesions up to 33 days after inoculation. Each group, control and treated, consists of 8 animals.
Risultati: I topi trattati con SP2 sviluppano tumori circa il 60% più piccoli rispetto al controllo (0.4 cm<3>vs 1 cm<3>) (figura 4). Results: The mice treated with SP2 developed tumors about 60% smaller than the control (0.4 cm <3> vs 1 cm <3>) (figure 4).
Esempio 5: Studio in vivo del ruolo dell’anticorpo SP2 in associazione al docetaxel sulla crescita tumorale di cellule di carcinoma mammario. Example 5: In vivo study of the role of the SP2 antibody in association with docetaxel on the tumor growth of breast cancer cells.
Materiali e metodi: Topi nudi vengono inoculati sottocute con 5x10<6>cellule di carcinoma mammario umano MDA-MD-231 (cellule che esprimono 90K). Un gruppo rimane come controllo. Altri gruppi vengono invece trattati per via intraperitoneale con SP2 alla dose di 10 µg/kg due volte la settimana o con IgG di controllo alla stessa dose, o con Docetaxel alla dose di 7.5 mg/kg una volta la settimana o con la combinazione di SP2 e docetaxel. La crescita tumorale viene monitorata misurando i diametri delle lesioni fino a 44 giorni dall’inoculo. Ciascun gruppo, controllo e trattati, consiste di 8 animali. Materials and Methods: Nude mice are inoculated subcutaneously with 5x10 <6> human breast cancer cells MDA-MD-231 (cells expressing 90K). One group remains as a control. Other groups are treated intraperitoneally with SP2 at a dose of 10 µg / kg twice a week or with control IgG at the same dose, or with Docetaxel at a dose of 7.5 mg / kg once a week or with the combination of SP2. and docetaxel. Tumor growth is monitored by measuring the diameters of the lesions up to 44 days after inoculation. Each group, control and treated, consists of 8 animals.
Risultati: Sia l’anticorpo SP2 che il chemioterapico docetaxel riducono significativamente la crescita tumorale rispetto al controllo. Tale effetto risulta maggiore quando i due agenti sono utilizzati in combinazione (figura 5). Results: Both the SP2 antibody and the docetaxel chemotherapy significantly reduce tumor growth compared to the control. This effect is greater when the two agents are used in combination (Figure 5).
